Back in December we were lucky enough to be invited up to the London Surf Film Festival, where one of our films had been shortlisted in the ‘Shorties’ category, here’s a quick run down of the event…
One awesome outcome of the collaboration between us and Alan Stokes, was that the project was used to help raise money for our friends at Surfers Against Sewage, which is a charity close to our hearts. It was a bonus for us that the film was nominated for LSFF 10, we hadn’t expected it and we were stoked to renew our relationship with the festival, our last trip up to the big smoke had been in 2014.
Chris and Demi (the organisers), our good friends, live in Porthtowan and had been early supporters of Otter Surfboards, and were always keen to have us take some boards up to Laaandan to spread the word. The festival had changed venues in the last few years so the opportunity to have a stand hadn’t always been possible, so it was really great to be involved once more, and this time actually be nominated for an award!

Big shout out to The London Surf Film Festival for inviting us, and to Alan Stokes, Bullfrog Media and Minor Figures for making the film possible, we’ve loved being involved with such great people!
Congratulations to all the winners! We can’t wait for the next one!
3 new workshoppers are at the trestles this week as Ben, Eleanor and Christopher make their own wooden surfboards, check out how they are getting on!
A mess of choppy whitewater greeted us at the beach this morning, but there are always corners to be found!
